After a weekend of shocks in the FA Cup, Chelsea can be grateful that their name will be in the hat for the draw for the fifth round. Norwich City became the first top-flight side to lose to nonleague opposition since the 1980s and Queens Park Rangers were humiliated at home by Milton Keynes Dons of League One while Tottenham were dumped out of the competition by Leeds United. Chelsea escaped a similar fate by the skin of their teeth. An FA Cup season that is regaining some of the glamour of old seemed likely to claim the scalp of the holders and European Champions until a rare moment of class from the troubled Fernando Torres late in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Brentford. ~ESPNFC.com - chelsea~
